Vaud
Vaud Travel Guide
This is the region of Lac Léman, or Lake Geneva, a grand, romantic, crescent-shape body of water with Geneva at the southwestern tip. Vaud occupies the corner of Switzerland that borders France, and it has top-drawer chefs, bubbling pots of fondue, and fine wine producers to show for it. Its romance -- Savoy Alps looming across the horizon, steamers fanning across the surface of the lake, palm trees rustling along its shores -- made it a focal point of the budding 19th-century tourist industry, an object of literary fancy, an inspiration to the arts.
